Safety Guidelines And Practices

Cybex recommends that all fi tness equipment be used in a supervised area. It is recommended that the equipment be
located in an access controlled area. Control is the responsibility of the owner. The extent of control is at the discretion of
the owner.

It is the responsibility of the purchaser/user of Cybex products to read and understand the owner’s manual, and warning
labels; as well as instruct all individuals, whether end users or supervising personnel, on proper usage of the equipment.

PROPER USAGE:

Use machine only as described in the manual. Failing to follow proper instructions may result in injury.
Do Not Lean Against or Pull On the framework, weight stack, or any component, whether machine is at rest or in use.

Inappropriate or improper use may result in injury to users or third parties (bystanders).
Do not use machine if it is not located on a solid level surface or is improperly installed.
Provide an adequate safety perimeter between the machine, walls and other equipment to ensure that the facility has the

proper clearance for usage and training.

SECURING EQUIPMENT:

The machine has holes in the feet, which allow for ease in anchoring to the fl oor. Cybex strongly recommends that,
to eliminate rocking, tipping or falling over due to incorrect usage and misuse, equipment be secured to a solid, level
surface.

1. The solid, level surface should not deviate more than 1/8” over a 10’ distance or as defi ned and required by local
building and architectural codes.

2. Anchoring of equipment must be completed by a qualifi ed licensed contractor.

Safety
Page 1-2

Cybex VR1 13230 Biceps/Triceps Owner’s Manual

3. Anchoring holes are provided on the feet of the frame. All anchoring locations must be used when anchoring the
equipment to the fl oor .

4. Due to the wide variation of fl ooring on which machines may be anchored or installed, verify anchoring method and
anchoring fasteners with a qualifi ed and licensed contractor.

5. A minimum pull out force of 220 lbs/100 kgs is required for each anchor position..

6. Do not use machine until it is properly anchored.
MAINTENANCE:

Preventative maintenance allows proper equipment operation and reduces the risk of injury. Perform the maintenance
requirements as specifi ed in the manual.

STANDARD COMPLIANCE:

Cybex products meet or exceed applicable ASTM and EN Standards.

Warning/Caution Decals

Warning decals indicate a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
Caution decals indicate a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.
The warning and caution decals are shown on the following page. The diagrams following the decals show where each

decal is located.

More Diffi cult Stains

•

Dampen a soft white cloth with a solution of 10% household bleach (sodium hypochlorite),
90% water. Rub gently. Rinse with a water dampened cloth to remove bleach concentration.

The same procedure can be used with full strength household bleach, if necessary.

•

Allow bleach to puddle on the affected area or apply with a soaked cloth for approximately •

30 minutes. Rinse with a water dampened cloth to remove any remaining bleach concentration.

Alternative Method for Diffi cult Stains

Dampen a soft white cloth with rubbing alcohol and rub gently. Rinse with a water dampened cloth to remove

•

any remaining rubbing alcohol concentration.

NOTE: To restore luster, a light coat of spray furniture wax can be used. Apply for 30 seconds and

follow with a light buffi ng using a clean white cloth.

Please Review Carefully

When using strong cleaning agents such as rubbing alcohol or bleach, it is advisable to fi rst test in an
inconspicuous area. Other cleaning agents may contain harsh or unknown solvents and are subject to formula
changes by the product manufacturer without notice. Should you desire to use other
cleaning agents, carefully try them in an inconspicuous area to determine potential damage to the material.
Never use harsh solvents or cleaners which are intended for industrial applications. To clean stained or soiled
areas, a soft white cloth is recommended. Avoid use of paper towels.

Cleaning products may be harmful/irritating to your skin, eyes, etc. Use protective gloves and eye
protection. Do not inhale or swallow any cleaning product. Protect surrounding area/clothing from
exposure. Use in well ventilated area. Follow all product manufacturer’s warnings. CYBEX and its vendors
cannot be held responsible for damage or injuries resulting from the use or misuse of cleaning products.

2. Frames - Wipe down all frames using a mild solution of warm water and car wash soap. Be sure to dry
thoroughly. AVOID acid or chlorine based cleaners and also cleaners containing abrasives as these could
scratch or damage the equipment.

3. Chrome - Clean chrome tubes, fi rst using chrome polish and then using a car wax seal. Neutral cleaners with
a pH between 5.5 and 8.5 are recommended. Be sure to dry thoroughly. AVOID acid or chlorine based cleaners

and also cleaners containing abrasives as these could scratch or damage the equipment.

Cable Adjustment

Three types of cable tension adjustment are used on Cybex Strength Systems:

1. Jam Nut Adjustment - This type uses a jam nut

and a tension adjustment nut at the cable cam end
as the primary adjustment. The other end of the cable
usually contains a roll pin adjustment. See Figures 6 and 7.

2. Rod End Adjustment - This type of adjustment contains

a socket head cap screw (SHCS) securing a cable rod end
bearing to the machine. Primary adjustment is by turning the
rod end bearing. The other end of the cable usually contains
a roll pin cable adjustment. See Figures 7 and 8.

Environment

Static Electricity - Depending upon where you live, you may experience dry air, causing a common experience

of static electricity. This may be especially true in the winter time. You may notice a static build-up just by walking
across a carpet and then touching a metal object. The same can hold true while working out on your unit. You
may experience a shock due to the build-up of static electricity on your body and the discharge path of the unit.
If you experience this type of situation, you may want toincrease the humidity to a comfortable level through the
use of a humidifi er .

Humidity - The unit is designed to function normally in an environment with a relative humidity range of 30% to
75%.

NOTE: Do not install or use the unit in an area of high humidity, such as in the vicinity of a steam room, sauna,

indoor pool or outdoors. Exposure to extensive water vapor, chlorine and/or bromine could adversely
affect the electronics as well as other parts of the machine.

Temperature - The unit is designed to function normally in an environment with an ambient temperature range

o

of 50

F (10o C) to 104o F(40o C) degrees.

Storage

Humidity - The unit can be shipped and stored in an environment with a relative humidity range of 10% to 90%.

NOTE: Do not store the unit in an area of high humidity, such as in the vicinity of a steam room, sauna, indoor

pool or outdoors. Exposure to extensive water vapor, chlorine and/or bromine could adversely affect the
electronics as well as other parts of the machine.

Temperature - The unit can be shipped and stored in an environment with an ambient temperature range of 32
F (0o C) and 140 F (60o C) degrees.
